1 Algera Warm Up Mar., Name:. A floor tile is made up of smaller squares. Each square measures i. o each side. Fid the perimeter of the floor tile.. A sectio of mosaic tile wall has the desig show at the right. The desig is made up of equilateral triagles. Each side of the large triagle is i. ad each side of a small triagle is i. Fid the total area of the desig to the earest teth of a ich.

2 Algera Ratioal Expoets Name: Ratioal Expoets ad Radicals (th Roots) Notatio: There are two ways to write a expressio for the th root of a umer. We already leared to use the radical otatio: 7 meas the rd root of 7. Aother way to express this idea is to use ratioal expoets. Recall that a ratioal umer ca e writte as a fractio made of two itegers. So a ratioal expoet is just a expoet i fractio form. The expoet for the th root of a umer is. Example: 7 ca e writte as 7 ad i oth cases they represet the umer. Whe we use ratioal expoets, the deomiator represets the root ad the umerator represets the power. Examples: a) = ) c) 8 8 d) 6 e) 6 6 You ca rewrite expressios from oe form to the other to make simplifyig easier. Ratioal expoets follow the same properties as iteger expoets, so that is a coveiet way to multiply radicals that have differet roots. Examples: What is the simplified form of each expressio? a Use 6 Add. 6 Use m m a a a. 6 Simplify. x x.. Write (6 x )( x ) i simplified form. (6 x )( x ) 6x x m m+ 6x x Use x x x. 7 x Simplify.
